Abstract
This study was carried out in order to determine the effects of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)(2)) and humic acid (HA) applications on nutrient uptake of pepper seedling under salt stress in a plant growth room. Before sowing Demre variety of pepper seeds, 60 mM NaCl was added to each 300 cm(3) pot. The experiment was ended at eighth week after the sowing. Applications of HA significantly affected K, Ca, Fe, Mn, Zn (p < .01) and P (p < .05) contents. Also, Ca(NO3)(2) applications did not show a significant effect on Fe and Cu contents of pepper seedling. However, Ca(NO3)(2) applications significantly affected N and P contents (p < .05) and K, Ca, Mn, and Zn contents (p < .01) of pepper seedling under salt stress.
